My eyeball. The optometrist showed me so I could see the laser hole in it. (I had to have drainage holes cut into my eyes 5 years ago). It’s like my eyeball was in in a lightsaber battle with a teeny tiny Darth Vader… at least that’s the way I like to imagine it.
I will be launching FRIDAY BARNES 11, LAST CHANCE at the State Library of Victoria on January 28th! I'm so excited to finally do an event in Melbourne again. I booked the theatrette at the state library so we can have a big crowd. I'll read a whole chapter from the new book and telling stories about how I came up with all the ideas. Then you'll be able to buy your own copy (and get it signed by me) 5 days before it officially goes on sale in other bookshops. Your friends will be so jealous! Tickets for the show are on sale at fridaybarnes.eventbrite.com or you can just use the link in the bio.
Workshopping songs for my Christmas show …. Pretty good hey?
If you're planning on coming to my Christmas show at the Glen Street Theatre but you haven't bought tickets yet, you might want to get on that. It's going to be a fun silly storytelling show full of Christmas spirit. It'll be good for grown-ups too. Even Ebenezer Scrooge would have a giggle.
This week on the podcast Nanny Piggins tells the story of King Arthur (Piggins) pulling the sword from the stone.
Here are my tour dates for 2023. I know it seems crazy to be organising next year's Book "Week" already, but days are already being snapped up, so if you're interested in having me visit your school contact my speakers agency in your state.
